    • Tbh, the best kick off format was at the very beginning, when it was Geordie, Laurence, Statman Dave, and a rotating guest for every episode, that were normally really good (Spencer, The lad from Game of Thrones, Calfreezy, Willne, Stephen, Behzinga, etc). It was hilarious, and actually had good football knowledge, particularly from Dave. And they didn’t have that short clip/clickbaity mentality, so it was pretty down to earth

  • The way the club spoke about The Kickoff was so strange to me, not even because they said it was bad, I'm actually fine with them doing that to an extent. But the way they spoke about it, if you'd never watched The Kick-off before, you'd genuinely think they'd only been guests on the show a couple of times, so when they're saying "It's not as good as it used to be" trying to come across as objective, but then not saying that THEY were the hosts, so the basic implication being that they made the show better, which again, fine, if they want to hold that opinion, got ahead, but actually say that. Adam seemed the most reasonable there, and seemed to actually acknowledge that he was a big part of it

    • People go way too deep into this. You could tell The Club was something they had planned for a long time. They had good reasons to leave because it's not like Brian fucked up once, he has said and been caught up in shit multiple times. It was time for them to leave, and to me The Club was a good move for them. I personally find it very enjoyable, and so does a lot of other people clearly. Almost 200k subs is very solid for a football channel considering it's quite new.

  • I know nothing about any of this, including Football in general. But basically they took the opportunity presented with Geordie’s cancellation to make more money. To hell with whether or not it was the right thing to do and to hell with their friend. Maybe it was necessary to move on but it seems like it was handled extremely poorly. They obviously didn’t really care about Geordie as a true friend just what he could do for their pocket book and careers. Obviously, we have no idea what happened behind the scenes but what we were shown in public is not a good look for any of them.

  • Brian needs Loz to help smooth out his rough edges and temper his apparent fixations on certain topics which made them an incredible team but I distinctly remember Loz having several moments where he comes across as a petulant child when things aren’t going his way. They were perfect counterbalances for each other and made great content because of it. I am rooting for each of them individually but the Club boys have left a sour taste in my mouth with how they have also handled the situation despite all the mitigating factors.

The problem is that when you rely on brands for your income, you have to be squeaky clean. You can't be yourself, and that's a fact.

    • Difference in my opinion is the persona put across and how accountable they are, for example everyone knows with Stephen tries 99% of what he says is a joke that has no real meaning and with jimmy carr he’s purely telling jokes and pushing the boundaries. Brian multiple times went on record calling people out for being wrong (which was part of his charm initially) with the likes of Logan Paul etc. if he’s going to have this power to call people out when it comes to social media it also comes with the responsibility of being perfect from a pr side yourself, so yeah he can say Logan Paul you are awful for filming that Forrest, but he can’t then make a racially motivated joke and have that be looked at as a joke and overlooked.

  • The Club is a slap in the face to the football content community. Not only is their branding almost 1 for 1 plagiarising The Kick Off but the unnecessary shots they take at The Kick Off are childish. The Club was something that clearly was in the works behind True Geordie's back for a while before they got canceled again before the 2022 World Cup and I knew as soon as Buvey came into the fold more and more that he would be the snake that would drive it all forward. Mckola handled the situation with some class, but Rory "the salesman" Jennings and Buvey "the narcissistic snake" are pathetic and even Rory admitted that he wouldn't have as great of a life or career if it wasn't for what True Geordie and Lawrence did for him.

    • I've copy and pasted this: "True Geordie has issued an apology on his KZhead channel after he was slammed for making a joke about Andrew Tate. The podcaster, whose real name is Brian Davis, was asked by one of his fans during a livestream whether he would fight the former kickboxer. Davis looked annoyed at the suggestion and his podcast colleague, Lawrence McKenna, said True Geordie would never win that fight because Tate has 'God on his side' now. Brian then said he would gladly 'blow myself up if I could take that f**king s**tbag with us'. McKenna jumped in to say that was a problematic stereotype about Islamic people, but Davis double downed. "I'm just saying, if he really wanted to prove it, do the right thing," Brian said while chuckling to himself. The joke didn't go down well and many on social media called the pun Islamophobic."
